British teenager to start a 16-Year-old millionaire

What were you doing when you were 16 years old? Busy doing your homework or playing?　　British teenager Chris Owens (pictured above) earned his first 1 million pounds (about 1.5 million dollars) in his life by running the company at the age of 16. Owens lives with his parents in Northampton Northamptonshire.　　Father Julian is 50 years old this year, is a factory worker, the mother Alison 43 years old, is the company secretary. At the age of 7, Owens became interested in computers and began to learn about the basics of web design. When he was 10 years old, he had the first computer in his life. Inspired by the success stories of Apple CEO Steve Jobs, Owens used pocket money to create his first career ——— set up the website "Mac B oxbundle". He discounted the app for Apple products on the site and donated 10% of its revenue to charities.　　The site was built just 2 years ago, bringing Owens more than 700,000 pounds of revenue. At the age of 15, he set up an ad site "BRANCHR" to offer trading platforms to various websites and advertisers.　　"BRANCHR" earns 500,000 pounds for Owens in just one year. Owens usually uses his spare time to work.　　His "staff" has a total of 8 employees, all of them adults, distributed in the United States and Britain. "Our goal is to be a leader in the Internet and mobile advertising industry," Owens said. "I don't know where I will be in 10 years, but I'm not leaving until the BRANCHR market is 100 million pounds (150 million dollars)." "Xinhua News Agency feature
